Selling limit increase instantly?

[Kelly441]

Opened a eBay Stealth account about 2 months ago, my selling limits are 10/1000. I made some sales over that time and have 7 positive feedbacks.

I noticed that it says

" Confirm your personal information

It takes only a few moments. Once we've verified your personal information you can sell with higher monthly limits."

Besides having my stealth info ready, what else do I need to be prepared for them to ask and what do I need to say to them that they want to hear?

You won't get it raised, it will do a check , and if ur identity doesn't match public records u won't even get a chance for an increase, if it does u will need to know SS#, birthday, what color was a car purchased in 2002 etc..

Max out your sales each month, get good feedback, gets increased automatically naturally.

[Kelly441]

When you say max out sales are you saying to try and hit the money limit too?

My account is 10/$1000

So would I be better off selling 10 items for $1000 each or 10 cheap items?

I find it better to try to get close to maxing out both money and quantity because then they tend to give you larger increases in both. Just my personal experience.

if you have a limit of 10 items, ensure you sell the 10 items, if you can get close to the money limit as well it does help

at some stage ebay will increase your limits

best of luck

Took me 3 months to get higher limits (without calling them) and i hit the 10 limit in the first week of every month.

business or personal account ?

The limits raise naturally without calling in, they want to see u are selling getting the item out fast with tracking and u get high DSRs , the first 3 months is a probation period, if in those 3 months u achieved what I have mention roped than the limits will raise

And usually it will happen sometime after the 90 days , if ur limit is 10 items list all 10 and usually u will log back in and see the increase, my dollar amount is usually under the $1000 but that doesn't matter

When ur account has passed the 90 day probation period the limits go up

I had a personal account and they increased it to 100/5000.

[a.v.limited]

So let's say it increases to 100/5000 after 90 days.

Does that mean I can immediately sell right up to the limit or do I need to take that increase slow?

You maintain the account to the best of your ability.

Keep all sales going well, supply great customer service and sell as you can.

Bear in mind your paypal status will affect how you operate.

one of my accounts...under a year old has a monthly selling limit of £11,000 thats right not a type error... 11k a month

i never requested the hike... one day i just had an email to say congrats my limit has been raised... to this day i believe its a mistake on there behalf but obviously im not going to flag them up about it

the account was only around 6 months old, obviously had 100% and no issues

but nothing warranted such a hike, but im not complaining

Just max your limits and let the account grow naturally - dont risk the verification...just let it happen automatically.

[Kelly441]

What about these accounts here on the forum that you can buy? If I buy one that has 100/5000 selling limit can I sell that much right away or do I need to take it slow and increase? If so how much each month?

You'd be best to speak to the specific account seller.

Personally the minute I get an increase on the account, I ramp up the listings to the maximum.

I can't see why it would cause an issue to sell to the maximum of your limit straight off the bat. It's kind of the reason why selling limits were introduced in the first place. They stop 0 feedback sellers listing 10000 items on their first day.
